Intake and exhaust is a waste to upgrade. The octane boost works. Try it or quiet.

Show me hard anecdotal proof that you gained better MPG and acceleration. Not some subjective number without a dyno test or seat of the pants feel.


Intake and exhaust is a waste to upgrade? The header and tune on my car yield 20-30 hp in the torque dip region, your octane booster can't do that. The FR-S OEM ecu tune is so consistent it will not go past 200 hp at the crank even if you go past 93 octane, the only difference is you'll lose likelihood it will knock if at all.

Do you know how to quote people? because making 3 separate posts in a row to one thread not directed to anyone isn't very helpful.

What are you even attempting to say here?

I have a tune and run 93 octane and have datalogs proving that's more than enough, even 91 if I flash to that tune but you lose a minuscule amount of power. On the OEM tune there is no difference.

As for California as to whether or not it "needs help" show me again, some proof, that shows its not good enough for our cars on OEM tune.



The problem really is you're making false accusations and pushing some product saying it'll work, I'm not sure if you're intentionally spamming "Lucas octane booster" but you've made some pretty hefty claims without any evidence. You even went as far as saying it'll increase top end lubrication.
